Trying to run FL Studio results in invisible main window

I installed FL Studio (version 10) in Wine (version 1.3.36). Installation works correctly. The program also starts correctly after installation, and appears to be fully functional, but it's totally invisible. Only the task bar entry in the KDE task manager bar appears and the initial dialog from FL Studio that informs me about this being a demo version.

I know that the application is functional because, even though absolutely nothing is visible, if I press SPACE, the demo song starts to play.

Any hints on what could be wrong? I even moved my current ~/.wine directory somewhere else and let winecfg create a new one to make sure I didn't have messed up settings and did a clean install of the application, but the problem persists. Any help is appreciated. I can see in the WineHQ database that this application should run fine in Wine, and I also find YouTube videos showing it run correctly in Wine, but I see no mention of my particular problem anywhere (which, as you can imagine, renders the application unusable since nothing is visible).

Btw, just to clarify, when I say "invisible", I really mean that. It's not that the application actually displays in an empty window or something like that. I mean that absolutely nothing is displayed at all. Not even an empty window. All I see when starting it is my desktop as if nothing had happened (but the application actually runs and receives keyboard events when I click on its task manager entry in KDE to make it active.)

I'm using Gentoo Linux AMD64, with kernel 3.2.0.
